Achieve Clear Water Reflections Across All Render Distances

Enable Water Reflection Features

Open the shader settings and locate water-specific options. Farloom includes specialized water lighting that maintains reflective quality whether you're looking at nearby oceans or distant seas at the edge of your render distance.

Balance Reflection Quality and Performance

Water reflection intensity can usually be adjusted in the shader menu. Higher settings create more realistic reflections but cost performance. Start with default values and increase only if your frame rate allows.

Verify Seamless Blending

Traveling across large bodies of water reveals how well the shader handles transitions. Water in loaded chunks should blend smoothly with distant water surfaces—no sudden color shifts, no obvious seams. If blending looks poor, check that your Distant Horizons configuration matches your shader's expected settings.

Test in Different Biomes

Water appearance varies by biome. Visit warm oceans, cold biomes, and swamps to confirm reflections and lighting remain consistent and readable across your entire render distance.
